Our friendly Hub2U team members, Sarah and Andrea (pictured) have been taking the support provided by family hubs on the road.
They have been meeting people in local communities and learning more about what they want in their local areas and helping to sign post them to the support available. They've also popped into schools and youth groups to speak to young people about the things that matter to them. Do say hello if you see them out and about!
Our 'Family Hub on Wheels' - known as Hub2U provides a mobile Family Hub service, bringing support closer to you, providing evening youth support and targeted help on topics such as wellbeing.
